This may seem very useful for players who has no time to spare, but a lot of players don't have the time to find or have enough to trade for an aegislash before battling the Gym Leader. Some, like me, dislike the use of it for reasons but that's not the point. However, any pokemon with speed and raw strength can destroy the gym. For me, I relied on STAB and/or boosted moves just to defeat the gym. For me, I used a Gengar (yes, it does have a megastone) to use Shadow Ball until it went to Spiritomb. Next, my Mega Blaziken (Its ability speeds it up every turn) uses protect a few times to gain enough speed. Next, I just spammed STAB moves like Blaze Kick to help. Sableye may burn or poison your pokemon, but it concentrates on defense than attack so picking it off is a piece of cake.
